London is recovering from plague in 1666, while Whitehall has returned to extravagance and the city is full of rumours about war, regicides and approaching catastrophe. Two victims at opposite ends of the capital are killed with the same unusual blade.

Thomas Chaloner traces both men to the Worshipful Company of Poulters and a trade struggling to supply the court's enormous demands. The investigation expands into religious prophecy, political conspiracy and a planned royal celebration, all unfolding near Pudding Lane as the capital moves unknowingly towards the Great Fire.
